Middle Age: A Leisurely Life in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 1 Office worker

The early morning sunshine in May filled the entire imperial capital, cars were passing by on the streets, white smoke was rising from the steamers of the breakfast shops on both sides, and the whole city was full of fireworks.

Yu Dongqing went out on time at 10:[-], wearing a white shirt and black suit pants, and carrying a black briefcase, first went to the Fat Aunt Snack Bar diagonally across the street to buy a deep-fried dough stick and a cup of soy milk, and then hurried to the restaurant not far away while eating. subway station.

After coming to this time and space for more than a month, he has begun to get used to this ordinary life of an office worker. He takes care of his daughter at work and weekends after get off work, and occasionally drinks and chats with a group of old friends. His life is simple and leisurely.

Thirty and forty are not confused. At the age of 36 this year, he is about to enter the age of not being confused. He did not expect to live another life.

Still called Yu Dongqing, still in the imperial capital, still in the entertainment industry, Yu Dongqing's life experience before graduation from university in the two time and space is exactly the same, but after graduation, they began to part ways.

Different from him who was still popular in time and space, this Yu Dongqing is not as lucky as him. As a non-famous singer, he sang for a while, but his voice suddenly broke down, so he turned to songwriting behind the scenes, but the results were mediocre.

Now working for a record company to do music production, he has become one of the thousands of office workers in this city.

After working hard, the couple settled down in this city, and there are two spare houses for rent. The income is not small, and the small life is ordinary and warm.

Unfortunately, his wife died of illness three years ago, leaving behind a five-year-old daughter.

Her name is Yu Tongtong, and she is in kindergarten now. Because Yu Dongqing has to go to work every day, she is usually helped by her father-in-law and sent back on weekends.

Today is Friday.

Yu Dongqing followed the crowd to the subway, and there were all office workers, standing or sitting with their mobile phones immersed in their personal world.

Looking at all this, he suddenly remembered a song "Office Worker" written by the short and tight in the 90s:
no matter how crowded
It's still deserted and you always have to go out to work
rainy morning
It's still windy evening, you always come and go in a hurry
people on the street
The people in the car are happy and sad, you all, you all
You have a wife Ruyu and a daughter Ruhua

You're a man and you're meant to support it
It's not easy to go out and do things

It's not easy to travel by car

I have learned not to be angry

Really.

not angry.

He was so busy in his previous life, fighting for fame and fortune, that he felt tired and exhausted, but now he is a salted fish, which is fine.

The company that Yu Dongqing works for, Jinye Records, is near Sanyuan Bridge. It takes more than 10 minutes to take the subway line 20 from Hujialou where he lives. After exiting the subway, he arrived on the third floor of the company building at 8:57. music production department.

Drink a cup of West Lake Longjing, sit in your work room, turn on your computer and start your day's work.

Although it is called a music producer, in fact, its main job is to arrange music for others, and occasionally write some songs according to the company's requirements.

Yesterday afternoon, I took a job to arrange the soundtrack of "Jianghu Prelude" for a martial arts film called "Jianghu Inn", which is adapted from the novel of the same name.

The tune is rubbish.

This was Yu Dongqing's first thought when she saw the score.

Fiction is even more trash.

What year is it, and you still shoot old-school martial arts?

If Tsui Hark crossed over, he would probably be pissed off by these people.

Also, is this a martial arts novel?
Have you read real martial arts novels?
Yu Dongqing recalled the content of "Jianghu Inn" in her mind, and she could always connect it with the works of "Jin Yongxin" and "Gu Longju" that filled the streets in the early 90s of time and space.

Not only martial arts novels, the entertainment in this time and space is really not good, and many familiar classic songs and movies are missing.

School folk songs used to be popular, but there is no old wolf Gao Xiaosong and a group of folk song masters, and the classic "You at the same table" is missing

Jacky Cheung and the others are not the four heavenly kings who have occupied the Xiangjiang song stage for more than ten years.

The godfathers of music in the three places on both sides of the strait are not like Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng.

There is no "Shawshank Redemption" in the film and television industry

no godfather

There is no "Journey to the West"!
Although the song looks like rubbish in Yu Dongqing's eyes, he still works hard, clicks on FL Studio, Chinese people are used to calling it "fruit", and calls up various plug-ins.

You can't make a plate of radishes, but try to have a better color and fragrance, right?
"Brother Yu, don't be so busy, take a rest." Suddenly, a young man's voice came from the next room.

"What?" Yu Dongqing looked up at him.

Wearing a white cultural shirt, with long hair young man.

His name is Li Wei, and he has been in the job for more than two years. Brother Yu's boss, Brother Yu, keeps shouting, and he has a good relationship with Yu Dongqing in private.

"According to reliable sources, the song you made up was eventually shot by the old hag!" Li Wei gloated.

Old Witch is the nickname given to music director Wu Lan by the employees of the company. In fact, she is not old. She is only 34 years younger than Yu Dongqing. Maybe it is because she is from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The gracefulness of Jiangnan women.

It's just that she is cold and cold, and she is very strict with the staff. If there is a slight mistake in the production and arrangement, the light one will reprimand the serious one, and the bonus will be deducted. Anyway, Yu Dongqing has been deducted several times. Sometimes let him go.

Yu Dongqing now feels that the nickname of the old witch is inaccurate - it should be called Miejue Shitai.

But there is no "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji" in this time and space.

Miejue Shitai is the aunt here today?In a bad mood?
Yu Dongqing guessed that of course she wouldn't say such vulgar words in front of the juniors, it would be demeaning.So he asked, "The news is reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable!"

Just as Yu Dongqing was about to say something, she saw a young woman sitting in the front row of the workshop turned around and lay down on the partition.

"No way? This song was written by Fang Jinsong himself, and he is the company's number one martial arts songwriter!" said the young woman.

What number one martial arts songwriter?

When Yu Dongqing heard this word for the first time, she felt a chill in her heart.

In the original time and space, they are not worthy to lift shoes for Huang Zhan, Gu Jiahui and others!
Even in this time and space, it is not as good as Xia Wenxi, who is a well-known composer in Xiangjiang, and his level is similar to that of Li Ziheng in the original time and space.

But now I am used to hearing his words.

"So what about the top card? Garbage is trash! Sister Yun, ask yourself, what do you think of the writing of "Jianghu Prelude"?" Li Wei retorted.

"It's really average, Brother Yu, what do you think?" The young woman's body leaned towards Yu Dongqing again, revealing her proud career line.

Her name is Luo Yun, she is 29 years old, and she has been married for less than three years. She is pretty and fashionable, and has a lively personality.Perhaps because of Yu Dongqing's tall and handsome appearance, Lao Aihuan went to Yu Dongqing's side.

But Yu Dongqing is very sober, some women are like ripe peaches, it seems that everyone wants to have a big one, but I didn't expect it to be a rose with thorns, which will bruise you all over your body.

This Luo Yun is undoubtedly this kind of woman, not to mention beautiful and capable, it is said that she has a certain family background.

Yu Dongqing's eyes inadvertently fell on the groove on her exposed chest when she bent over, and smelled a faint scent of perfume.

It seems to be the early morning brand of Loewe Luo Yiwei.

He leaned back unconsciously, and replied lightly:
"It's okay."

At this moment, the phone on Yu Dongqing's desk rang. Yu Dongqing picked up the receiver, heard the other person's words, said hello, then stood up and walked out.

"Brother Yu, what's the matter?" Li Wei asked curiously.

"Director Wu asked me to go to her office."

"What did that old witch tell you to do? She shouldn't take her anger out on you, right?" Li Wei was a little worried.

"How could it be? Director Wu is brother Yu's junior." Luo Yun retorted.

Yu Dongqing didn't say anything, just smiled and walked out.
